Thanks everyone for watching! Please leave a comment, I love to hear what you all think of our episodes! And as a reminder, all the wines and locations visited are listed on our website, www.visforvino.com/languedoc-roussillon
Hi Vince - follower from down under here. I love your shows and the warmth and respect you show to all people. I learn a lot about wines and regions and places I would love to visit if the opportunity arises. I appreciate the diversity you normally explore, with a mix of smaller labels as well as more recognised brands. I also love the range of foods you highlight too. This episode felt different to your other shows in that it focused solely on one winemaker. With such a big region and a large range of winemakers and styles, I missed the variety that is surely on offer. I recognise how expensive to must be to produce such a high standard show on a limited budget but as the show progressed I became a little uncomfortable as it began to feel more like a promo for Gerard Bertrand. The super, high-end accommodation and 7-course meal would be out of the range of most viewers. I'll hunt down the cassoulet if I get the chance and I would love to try some of Bertrand's wines but I will get out and dip my toe in a lot more experiences on offer in such a beautiful region. I look forward to you next episode. Good luck in all you do and thank you for your work.
I think this is my favorite of all the regional videos you’ve done. Extremely enjoyable to watch, great editing, beautiful scenes and what an amazing family. I have many wines from the region in my cellar including some VDNs(including rancio versions), of which, while they are all beautiful, my 75 Maury from Thunevin-Calvet is a stunner. You’ve certainly peaked my interest for an extended trip there. Cheers.
Wow, thank you!! I had fun in this one too. Sometimes I enjoy diving deep into a story, like in this episode, or Piedmont episode, or Provence. I'm happy you enjoyed it. Hope to go back again for a part two episode!
You offer so much to vine enthusiasts and future sommeliers with your videos. Thank you for making each video enjoyable to watch! Your efforts are helping more people develop a love for wine and encouraging them to learn more. Keep up the great work!
Can’t get enough of these documentaries especially European episodes that makes one want to go and enjoy the wines and regions. AMAZING video. Thank you. Great camerawork and as always you are a great story teller.
This video is some of the best wine-content out there on TH-cam. Continue doing what you're doing, Vince. This channel is without a doubt going to blow up!
Amazing! Great episode and so happy you came to my neck of the woods! Once again think you should be on one of the streaming platforms. Best series since No reservations. Understand you had time constraints. But there are so many small interesting wine producers around Narbonne. Keep up the great work!
The wait is practically killing me…I am so excited for this episode of an underexplored region of France. Can you hop to the Loire and Brittany (I know this isn’t a real wine region…just want to see your filmmaking about food and drink) regions someday, pretty please❤ Gonna add - Jura region😬
It's a great region for holiday and even a better one if you're into wine. Nice interview with the king of Corbières and La Clape, but who has a finger in many appellations in the Languedoc-Roussillon. Clever businessman he is. I prefer some area's, like Terrasses du Larzac where great things are happening and Limoux for whites.
Great episode Vince!. Quite educational for sure. You've convinced me to give Languedoc-Roussillon a try. Looked you had a great time filming this one. Looking forward to the next one. Keep up the great work V! Salud!
I really enjoyed this video. Will try to pick up some of Bertrand's wines. We have had the Cotes de Roses and it is fantastic. I was the US business manager for a French company based in Toulouse back in the early 2000's. Travelled there a lot and tried cassoulet at many restaurants in town, each night sampling a different cassoulet. Loved the Victor Hugo market in Toulouse as well. You are correct about the markets in France. I need to return to that region!
A brilliant episode Vince and team. Reminds me why I love wine and inspires me to continue to travel, taste and discover. Wine (and food) is life- the most worthy preoccupation. Gérard's character produces deep feelings in me. Do I quit what I do and crawl to Languedoc? Do I go about setting up the best winery ever in my nearest wine region? Or just open a wine bar showing the worlds best wines I can get my hands on? Or, keep working and living vicariously through Vince while buying the best wines I can afford..? Brilliant problems to ponder over a glass of fine... Stunning stuff as always my guy. Thank you!
Love love love!!! Amazing show, thank you for the work and passion you all put in, to tell this story and bring the show together. . Gerard, his daughter, and their philosophies - a vision executed to perfection, we need more of these wonderful people on our beautiful planet. Thanks so much for the work you do, and for the eye opening journey to this beautiful region, I can't wait to visit it myself!
What a fantastic video, I've had the opportunity of having GB's wines on my lists for a while, but this is the first time I learn so much about their winemaking processes and their story. You guys are fantastic!
Cracking episode Vince! I have been to the Languedoc many times and recommended Gerard Bertrand to you a few months back so really happy you visited him. I hope to get down there later this year so thanks for tips!
Thank you for this great video! One of the best wine related videos I have ever seen. Thank you for interviewing Gerard. He is the Georges Duboef of languedoc and deserves even more recognition.
Love your videos! Helped me a lot with my wine exams. At my workplace we sell a whole bunch of Gerard Betrands wines and I absolutely love them. Awesome to learn some more about the area and the wines!
That makes me so happy, because that's why i started the channel: I wanted to help people learn and get through those exams or get that promotion. I know, because I was in the same spot once upon a time; so glad we could help!
You have taken this episode to another league with such passionate viticulturists.... wow! I must visit this region during my next visit! Truly amazing!
THIS was amazing!! So much to learn and especially enjoyed the segment on Gerard Bertrand; a brand I have enjoyed & now even more so having learned more about the region, production & vintner(s)!! Curiously, I even took notes, LOL!! The bread boutique looked like it was well worth the “hunt”! Film editing is tremendous; really get a feel for the (beautiful) areas plus, the rapport with the vintners is one of mutual respect and candor-well done.
such good productions with fun informative contents... Love to see Emma 's family legacy and she inherited the knowledge and skills to continue its heritage. subscribed.
wow..just wow. i love every minute of this episode. the moon room course..that was magical. Gonna go check if they have Gerard Bertrand wines available in Japan! Thank you so much for this episode!
Absolute love this video! We passed through Narbonne last September and I wish we had watched this video beforehand. I learned so much. Btw did you go to the famous buffet in Narbonne? Anyway keep up the great videos coming! Merci!!
Yes, as I mentioned in that one segment, the "branding" of the region is a bit funny, and can make it a bit confusing. But hopefully they'll all get on the same page moving forward.
Spectacular - love how you capture the essence of each region you visit - the people, place, wine and food! Every episode, I can’t wait to go visit where you’ve been!! 🍷🍇🥖🧀 🥰
Very Nice Video … just a Bit sad that you only talked about Gerard Bertrand and didn‘t mention other wine makers Like in the other Videos! Maybe think of a Part two? Including wineries Like La Grange des Pères, Mas des Armes or smaller domaines Like MAISON Ventenac
Well, I've saved this video because I'm moving from Los Angeles to Montpellier in August, 2024, I'll be right in the middle of the action... Found you while searching for wineries near Montpellier as I am a huge wine fan. Thanks for the thorough video.
Epic one!!!!! Will definitely see if I can get my hands on that Oakey Rose. Sounds delicious . On A side note if you ever fancy going to SOuth Africa for a show. I would be delighted to be your guide and to show you the incredible appellations and site spastic blocks bases on terror that help to create some incredible South African wines.
Congrats on another great vid. Thx for showing those great people wines and places. Having the right tools is important. At 25:53 the tool used was an insult to the wine 😅
I’ve went to Gerard Bertrand(Narbonne), really awesome, thanks for the tip. You really should come to Brazil, the northwest of São Paulo are producing really awesome Shiraz, the south is outstanding to (Better than Uruguay), and nowhere in the world you’ll get “Winter wine” (double trim) like here. Any doubts about it, please talk to me, I’ll gladly help you with the schedule.
That's great. The Languedoc-Roussillon is a confusing region, and it's nice to get a map and some tips. All of those Bertrand wines are available here.
Nice video but resuming Languedoc-Rousillon to Gerard Bertrand's wines is rather disappointing. There are so many very good small wine producers in this region that would deserve more publicity.
He didn't mention how the bakery towards the beginning of the video grinds all it's own flour using the actual restored windmill! Can confirm it is some of the best bread you'll ever taste. it is in Cucugnan
My suggestion. If type of wine could identify as shape of the bottle would be helpful. Because out of Europe the wine experience is very less. Example sweet wine with square shape bottle, bitter wine is long and slim shape bottle etc...
this is funny because it’s a prime example of the intersection between Normie wine nerds and And the ancient idealist philosophies that biodynamicbiodynamic wine making comes out of.
I have to say, this one left me very disappointed. While the scenic shots were stunning and the production quality was top-notch, it felt like more of a promotional video than an informative piece. As someone eager to learn more about the wine, I was hoping for some insightful content about its culture, history, or unique features. Instead, the episode focused primarily on promoting Gerard's ventures without offering much substance. Considering this is the largest region covered so far, I expected to come away with a deeper understanding and appreciation. Unfortunately, I feel like I learned very little. Overall, it was my least favorite episode so far, and I hope future episodes will strike a better balance between promotion and education. Cheers,
Thanks everyone for watching! Please leave a comment, I love to hear what you all think of our episodes! And as a reminder, all the wines and locations visited are listed on our website, www.visforvino.com/languedoc-roussillon
I love these episodes
For the love of wine, could you please learn to speak at least some French !
Vince, you are good. I love how you and your team create the maps and the history illustrations
Thank you for noticing! The graphics take SO much time haha but it's worth it if it helps people learn!
Simply wonderful. The storytelling, camera work and presentation of a so called sleeper region was nothing short of amazing.
Thanks! My crew is awesome, they really do a great job filming and region and helping me do it justice!
You always so genuinely honor the people behind the wine, Vince. I love that so much.
Thanks JP!

Understand you had time constraints. But there are so many small interesting wine producers around Narbonne. Keep up the great work!
Thanks! And yes, there's definitely space for a "part two" of the episode!
I was especially happy when your host mentioned the 8000-year-old Georgian tradition of wine making. Another wonderful episode. thank you very much.
I really hope to get to Georgia someday soon!
Vis for vino would be fantastic in Georgia. I do not doubt.
The wait is practically killing me…I am so excited for this episode of an underexplored region of France. Can you hop to the Loire and Brittany (I know this isn’t a real wine region…just want to see your filmmaking about food and drink) regions someday, pretty please❤
Gonna add - Jura region😬
Happy to say we’re filming Loire in July!!
Great. Favorite wines from my wife are from Loire.
Yay!!!!
Thank you for a beautiful experience.... ❤
@@visforvinoIf you do a Tuscany video, I know a winery you need to check out in Montepulciano.
It's a great region for holiday and even a better one if you're into wine.

Yes, I really didn't even get to touch on Limoux or so many other smaller appelations!
Great episode Vince!. Quite educational for sure. You've convinced me to give Languedoc-Roussillon a try. Looked you had a great time filming this one. Looking forward to the next one. Keep up the great work V! Salud!
Always good to hear from you, thanks for watching!!
How do you not have your own show on tv man?! Great stuff!
Thanks so much, hopefully one day!
I just downloaded this for my plane ride tomorrow and I can't wait!
This was phenomenal! Probably your best video yet.
Thank you Joshua!
Phenomenal video! Thank you SO MUCH for taking us on this exciting journey! ❤
Our pleasure!
I really enjoyed this video. Will try to pick up some of Bertrand's wines. We have had the Cotes de Roses and it is fantastic.

Wonderful episode Vince and team!!!
Excellent episode! Loved it! Thank you for this!
Outstanding video. This channel is a joy to watch!
Excited to explore this region in July! Great episode! What an exciting place for wine!
Perfect, enjoy the trip!

Yes, he really helped pioneer the region!
Fantastic episode. I can’t say enough good things about it. It’s to be treasured, and rewatched.

So excited! Love this episode 👏🏻
Great episode on the region! I've enjoyed a variety of wines from Gerard Bertrand's house. Nice to meet the man behind the wine!
Another Amazing! episode. Thank you!

Thank you!! Check out our other episodes, I think you'll like them too!
Amazing content, well done team V
Amazing video. I’m trying to learn more about wines, grapes and regions and this is gold! Please do more regions!
Thanks so much!! More to come, but definitely dive into some of the older episodes, we’ve got over 20 now! 👏
such good productions with fun informative contents... Love to see Emma 's family legacy and she inherited the knowledge and skills to continue its heritage. subscribed.
Happy to have you on board!
wow..just wow. i love every minute of this episode. the moon room course..that was magical. Gonna go check if they have Gerard Bertrand wines available in Japan! Thank you so much for this episode!
Thank you, I think they are in Japan too!
What a great job! May God bless you all!!
Thank you so much!
hey Vince, love from finland. keep these videos coming
Thank you so much!!! All the way from Finland, amazing!
Vincent I love your show. Thank you.
Thank you!
One of your best episodes hands down
Thank you, it was a fun one!
This show is such a gem! Such great quality; it’s always worth the wait! I’d love to see an episode on wine from the Canary Islands ❤
I want to do an "island wine" episode someday!
Great documentary. I enjoyed watching this and the episode from the southern Rhone.
Matthias from Germany
Hope to get to Germany soon!
@@visforvino we have great wine regions too, but not the landscape of he mediterranian sea.
Absolute love this video! We passed through Narbonne last September and I wish we had watched this video beforehand. I learned so much. Btw did you go to the famous buffet in Narbonne? Anyway keep up the great videos coming! Merci!!
I can't believe I didn't go to this buffet, I just googled it!
@@visforvino don’t worry. We didn’t get to experience it either. I tried to book in September but they were booked all the way to March-April!
Gerard and Vincent Cassel are fantastically similar, just like siblings. Amazing ad for a wine farm. Going to buy a rose one.
I feel being there , without being there...Brilliantly covered as always...Hats off..
Great episode. I’ve seen bottles label South France but now I know those should be looked at. Thanks!
Yes, as I mentioned in that one segment, the "branding" of the region is a bit funny, and can make it a bit confusing. But hopefully they'll all get on the same page moving forward.
Another great video nice to see you back
More to come!
Spectacular - love how you capture the essence of each region you visit - the people, place, wine and food! Every episode, I can’t wait to go visit where you’ve been!! 🍷🍇🥖🧀 🥰
😃😊
this channel is always incredible, keep up the great work. any plans to revisit italy soon?
We were supposed to go this year, but it fell through. Hoping in 2025!
Love what you do! Keep up the good work 👏👏
Thank you! Will do!
Very Nice Video … just a Bit sad that you only talked about Gerard Bertrand and didn‘t mention other wine makers Like in the other Videos! Maybe think of a Part two? Including wineries Like La Grange des Pères, Mas des Armes or smaller domaines Like MAISON Ventenac
There's definitely enough to talk about there to warrant a part two one day!

Really enjoyable and informational episode. Thank you very much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great quality videos!
Well done Vince! You are getting better and better, congrats!

I would be delighted to be your guide and to show you the incredible appellations and site spastic blocks bases on terror that help to create some incredible South African wines.
Thank you for the offer! We've actually been trying to put together a South Africa episode for a few years now without any luck unfortunately.
Can't wait to see your next video.
Tomorrow will be fun!
Wonderful, thank you very much!
Amazingly covered, as always...Cheers..
Congrats on another great vid. Thx for showing those great people wines and places. Having the right tools is important. At 25:53 the tool used was an insult to the wine 😅
bertrand is one of my favorites in easily drinking wines. I usually go for a coteaux the narbonne an 118 which is a super value cab. great wines :)
Yes, killer value!!
I’ve went to Gerard Bertrand(Narbonne), really awesome, thanks for the tip.
You really should come to Brazil, the northwest of São Paulo are producing really awesome Shiraz, the south is outstanding to (Better than Uruguay), and nowhere in the world you’ll get “Winter wine” (double trim) like here.
Any doubts about it, please talk to me, I’ll gladly help you with the schedule.
Thanks so much; I've had a few people mention Brazil to me, I'll try to add it to the list!
That's great. The Languedoc-Roussillon is a confusing region, and it's nice to get a map and some tips.
All of those Bertrand wines are available here.
Those maps take forever to make, so I'm happy they're getting noticed! haha
Nice video but resuming Languedoc-Rousillon to Gerard Bertrand's wines is rather disappointing. There are so many very good small wine producers in this region that would deserve more publicity.
what a show,love it
Excellent content and direction
He didn't mention how the bakery towards the beginning of the video grinds all it's own flour using the actual restored windmill! Can confirm it is some of the best bread you'll ever taste. it is in Cucugnan
Yes! So funny you know it! It really is some of the best bread out there. The place is called LES MAÎTRES DE MON MOULIN for anyone interested!
I will search for the wine from the company you showed ! So curious to try
Blew me away! Spice, spice, spice. 💞 a 🍷 with a pepper note. 🙏🏼
ILove your shows sir keep going please ❤
We will!
Well Done Vince!!❤
Thank you!
Here in the Roussillon, we also have white Carignans (Carignan blanc and Carignan gris) that make exceptional full bodied white wines
Ooo, will need to seek out
Incredible episode!!!
I went through college drinking Gerard Bertrand reds--great memories and great wines!
There's a wine in his lineup for all stages of life for sure!
I'm so ready for this!
Nice episode. Now I finally know how to pronounce Languedoc-Roussillon!!
haha Sometimes I have to learn how to properly pronounce some of these things too. So many French wine words lol
Monsieur Bertrand is an absolute legend! 🙏
Excelent video.
Thank you!
Superb👌🍇🍷
unbeleiveable production
The worst thing about this show, is that they don't do these more often 😅 !!! So good, so insightful, so fun. Great work
Next episode in May!
Wow that tasting at the end in the cosmic restaurant was wild. 1939 & the fig dish…..
Such a unique experience for sure!
Vincent, I just hope you don't say that you were there for work 😂 (said with the most envious tone and laughter)
😂
Carignan, also know as Cariñena (also an area in Spain) in Spanish 🥂🍾🍷
My suggestion. If type of wine could identify as shape of the bottle would be helpful. Because out of Europe the wine experience is very less. Example sweet wine with square shape bottle, bitter wine is long and slim shape bottle etc...
this is funny because it’s a prime example of the intersection between Normie wine nerds and And the ancient idealist philosophies that biodynamicbiodynamic wine making comes out of.
Where is the boulangerie please?

Merci beaucoup !
😍😍
Just saw this town in the French series “ Murder In “
My new gastronome travel goal- Moon Room 🌚
It was so cool! Hope you get to go.
Did not know that Vincent Cassel was a winemaker now 😅😅😅just joking Gerard bertrand is a greta business man!!
haha
I have to say, this one left me very disappointed. While the scenic shots were stunning and the production quality was top-notch, it felt like more of a promotional video than an informative piece.
